2019 Jeep Grand Cherokee; Manufacture Date October 2018 Vehicle engine off and vehicle in park in the driveway. Came out to the car to get something out of it and found that the passenger side active headrest safety feature had deployed. My car was not involved any type of collision - nothing has hit my car. It just popped out all on its own when no one was in the car and the vehicle wasn-??t even turned on. I have seen SEVERAL reports on this problem, and Jeep agreed to extend the warranty on this problem indefinitely but only on year models up to 2018. My vehicle was manufactured in 2018 but the dealer says my vehicle VIN is not included for this warranty. That-??s ridiculous! The same exact problem has occurred to my headrest that they cover for everyone else but not my vehicle. Same problem, made in the same year as the other vehicles were made but mine not covered because the vehicle is labeled as a 2019 design. Also, the faulty part is also made of plastic!!

The display/electronic system appeared to be hijacked during my commute to work. The hacker began by changing the radio from sirius xm to an am station, then began changing settings (climate control of seats), viewed connected devices (usb, media etc.), then switched to view the rear view camera, viewed the compass, viewed phone settings and dialed the last number dialed from my phone. The hacker kept going back to settings, rear view camera, radio and climate control. This all happened in a short amount of time and continued even after I had stopped the vehicle and turned my cell phone off. I left my phone off until I arrived at work and the hacker was still messing with settings and radio. I turned the vehicle off and opened the door to drop the display and all electronic auxiliary power.
